have a 1980 vintage Shilen DGA in .308. It is a heavier target
weight gun and that is all I will be using it for. It was so new
looking that I did a barrel break-in. My first two trips to the
range have produced several groups smaller than .25" I even had
two smaller than .1". It's a real shooter. I have searched
and read many posts on this forum. Now, I just want to throw it
out there for your opinion. I will be target shooting out to at
least 500 meters. What scope do you recommend? And I can't
afford to spend $1000 on a scope.

How much CAN you afford? Or, if your like me, how much will the little wife allow you to spend??
Seriously, give the forum a $ amount and that would be most helpful.

I would go with a 6.5-20 Leupold or a 6-24 Elite 4200 shame they stopped making those guns, they were great guns. Good luck with it!!!

sounds like the scope you have on there is working pretty good.
